I’m back in Minnesota after a short road trip to Dallas to see the Saints finish the post-season. Unfortunately, they weren’t able to bring home the trophy, but I had a blast on the trip. Anyway, let’s get down to business. If you haven’t already read it, you need to check out Anthony’s latest Hoptellectual on Wilco’s album Yankee Hotel Foxtrot; it’s almost just as good as the album itself.

Next, take a gander at this episode of BrewTV on Lift Bridge Beer Company. If you’re ever in Stillwater, make sure to stop by for a visit and a growler and support this great local brewery.

Finally for Suds:

– There are still plenty of events going on this week in Minnesota before the Autumn Brew Review. Check it out here.
